Tyre Pressures

What tyres pressures are people running and what do you find best from a handling and ride perspective.

Obviously it will vary from model to model and tyre profile.

Currently running 34 psi all round.

Was running 40 untill i put the coilovers on and was told to run them at 36 which i have found quite good at that pressure.

40psi for mine

Tyre wear good, but i've only done 13+k on mine.
Feel better response @ 40 for daily driving and probally a tad more fuel economy. Was previously running 38.

I think i got just over 25k @ 40 psi. But then I did give them a hard time.

If your checking for tyre wear make sure you check the inside edge cos the outside will still have heaps of tread while the inside is bald.

I might try 36 psi for a week or so and see how I go.

Im currently running 36 at all corners.
The reason why is, gives a nice firm ride with out the tyres making plenty of noise when they start to let go. I so dislike tyre squeel hence the reason I own an STi and not some point and shoot wannabe RWD.

I run 36 at the moment.

I will put them up to 40 when going on a freeway drive.

40's nice for giving it a hit around a corner in the wet, whoa she just steps out.

Another 38psi here.

Tyre wear can be crappy, but thats more due to -2 camber on front and rear

Adam man,do you honestly believe deep down in your heart that your car is an STI?
